Leng Xiaodan changed the subject with a cold face, "I'm feeling heavy now and can't get up early. You can come later to say hello."
"Yes, I understand. Princess, take care of yourself. If you need me to serve you, just give me your orders at any time."
Leng Xiao's expression softened slightly, "It's hard for you to have such a heart, but I have enough people to serve in Zhanyue Residence, so I don't have to work hard for you."
"It is my honor to serve the Crown Princess, and there is no such thing as hard work."
Leng Xiao pursed her lips for a while, as if she was still angry about what had just happened. After a while, she asked someone to serve tea and some snacks.
Qi Baixing was flattered. He had never been treated like this before.
After she had some snacks, she heard Leng Xiao ask her, "You have always been in contact with Concubine Xiao from the Jin Palace, right?"
Qi Baixing's heart froze and he didn't dare to raise his head. He took a sip of tea and stiffly smiled and said, "I have met him a few times and talked to him, but I am not familiar with him."
"Yeah." Leng Xiao nodded slightly, but said nothing.
Qi Baixing's heart skipped a beat. Did she discover something? I had told Concubine Xiao not to go to her palace before. If she went there too many times, she would always arouse suspicion.
Concubine Xiao always said that when she went to the East Palace, she would definitely pay a visit. After all, she was Liang Di and the well-known master of the East Palace.
If you deliberately avoid it, there will be a problem.
In the past, she didn't have much knowledge. Concubine Xiao would do whatever she said. But if the princess was really suspicious, she would probably be left with nothing to eat. Don't even think about the favor of the prince. She could keep her current wealth. question.
Look at that fool Hong Lingling, he is still living in Huiguang Palace willingly, and he has no idea that it was the Crown Princess who did it.
Just when her mind was wandering and worried, she heard the Crown Princess say again: "If you see her next time, try to make some insinuations to see if King Jin wants to use spiritual practice."
Qi Baixing was stunned, raised his head and looked at her, "Spiritual cultivation?"
"The head guard of the Qinglong Guard." Leng Xiao seemed a little impatient, "Just ask, but don't show any trace, just make insinuations. If she doesn't want to tell, don't ask."
"Yes, yes!" Qi Baixing responded quickly, but felt a little surprised in his heart. The Crown Princess actually asked her to seduce Concubine Xiao. Isn't this a free opportunity?
Leng Xiao's attitude became more cordial, and after a few greetings, he asked her to leave.
Lingxiu had also been out getting drunk these days, and got into fights with others, which led to him going to the Yamen, but Mr. Wei rescued him.
Moreover, he did not return to the East Palace for several days in a row, and even the Qinglong Guard did not interact with him.
Concubine Xiao also recently went to the East Palace to look for Ming Wudao, so she took the opportunity to look for Qi Baixing.
Qi Baixing was worried that he would not find a chance. When he saw her coming, he pulled her into the palace, chased everyone away and talked quietly.
"Concubine, the Crown Princess asked me to check on you privately a few days ago to see if the prince wants to use spiritual practice. She scolded Ape that day and made Ape cry. I asked her when I went in. He didn’t answer, he just hesitated for a long time before asking me to inquire about the information.”
When Concubine Xiao heard this, she became happy and said, "She is anxious."
After taking a sip of tea, I felt proud. Ling Xiu was really an important person in the East Palace. Leng Xiao couldn't sit still, and probably the prince couldn't sit still either.
"Concubine, what is the reason for this? She asked me to inquire, so how should I respond to her?"
Concubine Xiao said meaningfully: "Don't worry about anything. Just tell her that the prince appreciates spiritual practice and feels that spiritual practice is suitable for serving as the minister of the Ministry of War. It is too unfair for him to be a mere captain of the bodyguard."
"Lingxiu wants to be the minister of the Ministry of War?" Qi Baixing was stunned. King Jin was obviously trying to rob the East Palace.
"You'd better say this in front of Ape. If Ape is not here, you can tell Ape this in private later."
